A Vessel Safety Check 
IS NOT
 a law enforcement activity.
  No report of you or your boat is ever made to any law enforcement agency.

The Vessel Safety Check (VSC) is a free check of your vessel's equipment covering federal and state safety related requirements.  The check is conducted only with your consent.  The examiners performing this service  have been carefully trained to look for some of the more common problems which might occur on your vessel (this includes personal watercraft) or its associated safety related equipment.
